Teaching children how to grieve is a basic life skill that has been ignored.  Many parents don’t know how to help their children cope with the changes and losses that are a part of life, and they unintentionally make mistakes. But parents can teach children that the pain of life is bearable.</p>
<p>In <em>The Gift of Loss</em>, author Grace E. Davis, a registered nurse, captures a lifetime of memories and lessons learned in a wonderful and magical book which draws upon 22 years experience in the fields of childhood trauma, child development, and the human response to tragedy and loss.</p>
<p>Each of three critical developmental stages from birth through five years presents parents with opportunities to teach their children how to cope with challenge or loss.  With a gentle touch and graceful wisdom, Davis explains and warmly illustrates exactly what to do to create secure attachment bonds and weather even the most trying of circumstances.</p>
<p><em>The Gift of Loss</em> contains valuable insights—real treasures that will help parents teach their children how to cope with life. “The more opportunities children have to learn to cope with the little losses of childhood,” Davis writes, “the more they will gain from all the changes in life.  And when a child learns and grows through grief, small losses lead to big gains.  That’s when loss becomes a gift.”</p>
<p>Grace Davis’s book is a gift that provides parents with the skills needed to reap the rewards of raising an emotionally resilient child.</p>
